Description

Hi,

> Are we looking at different things, Justin? The NOTICE file in the directory you mention only has copyright information for bundled software (and text to help us know to what product that copyright statement applies).

That is not the purpose of NOTICE.

> Are you expecting a more verbatim inclusion of the full NOTICE content and not the relevant "spirit"?

See [1]

>
> For LICENSE, gRPC is ALv2 (no mention required), protobuf-java is 3-clause BSD (which is included), netty is ALv2 (no mention required), and gson is also ALv2. What do you see that's missing?

It's not required but recommend that all licenses be listed in LICENSE. [2]

Thanks,
Justin

From thirdparty 0.2.0 rc0 on general@incubator from JustinM.

tl;dr remove copyright notices from NOTICE and include all license text into LICENSE for bundled dependencies.
